Lokpal bill

A lot of hallagullah is going on in India now a days in relation to fight against corruption. A Civil Society has been organised by some of the eminent personalities of India. There is another person Baba Ramdev agitating for bringing back the so called huge black money in the Foreign banks. Since 5th June he is on fast. The government of India has taken so many steps (may be called Saam, Daam, Dand,Bhed) to avert the conflicting situations.
No doubt, every Indian will favour bringing back the Indian money and wealth deposited in the foreign banks. He may also wish to bring down the level of corruption, which has pervaded the each and every aspect of Indian social, economic and political life. A profession is generally acquired to earn money and to earn the livelihood. In India, working for NGOs, becoming MLAs and MPs, becoming ministers etc. have also become professions.
Money has become the sole motivator for work. Most of the time people not only try to get legitimate money but also the illegal money. In this situation, the point is whether what Civil Society and Baba Ramdev are trying to achieve are the objectives of the Indian society at large.

Necessities for development

I came to my native town in the summer vacation. Here only some situations descended me in brooding regarding requirements for the development of a society in modern terms. We require the foremost energy resource/ power. Only then anyone can think of establishing an industry. Without industry how can you dream of increase in GNP, GDP, per capita Income and National Income. We know the situation of agriculture. It employs a large number of people but contributes a little to GDP and National Income.
